So if you get whiplash you shouldn't claim? Even though it typically puts you out of action for at least a couple of days.
No, if you don't get whiplash you shouldn't claim.

Simple solutions:
1) Referral fees = illegal
2) No win no fee = illegal
3) Amount claimed must be equal to income lost.
Furthermore:
4) National insurance scheme initiated, buy a tax disc = automatic third party insurance
5) Extra insurance is optional
First car was a Mk II Escort, 18th birthday present from grandparents. Was second hand and cost about 2k GBP. When I started working at 21 I had a Mk III Escort 3.5k. Changed jobs a few years later and got a company car with it, Astra SRi. Second company car was an A4 1.8. I changed jobs again in 98 and went for more money and opted out the company car. Purchased an A4 for 22k. Two years later part exchanged it for a A4 Avant (Estate) due to kid and dog, 24k GBP List Price.
In 2002 I moved to Dubai and had a company car again, Toyota Prado Landcruiser. Purchased another for the Mrs to do school run 145k Dhs. In 2010 I opted out the company scheme and took the money, purchased a Toyota FJ Stealth 155k Dhs around 30k GBP. Also had a Golf V5 2L for a while was second hand and purchsed for 30K Dhs (5k GBP) and sold that for 20k Dhs after 2 years.
Insurance here runs at around 3-4% of the cars value.
What do you do in Dubai?
Ah right, I'm quite interested in how Dubai works, I heard the construction industry is slowing right down, and there's a massive 'social class' divide, Architects being very rich, and builders being very poor.I'm a Program Manager working in the In-Flight Entertainment Industry. - http://www.panasonic.aero/Products/XSeries.aspx. We do the IFE on most of the airlines around the world, Emirates, Qatar, Singapore, Virgin, Cathay....About 80% of the worlds airlines use our systems. Right now I'm working on our new Global Communication System with the launch customers in the Middle East. http://www.panasonic.aero/Products/Globalcomm.aspx

I guess this hasn't affected you much though
